Summary of act one in A Midsummer Night's Dream

Act one I thought was was really good it had comedy, drama romance and a bunch of more things that I love in a play. Act one scene one we learned that Theseus and Hippolyta are getting married in four days we also learned about Hermia, Lysander and Demetrius. We learn that Theseus is making Hermia his daughter marry a guy that she does not love which is Demetrius but Demetruis has strong feelings for her. Hermia is in love with Lysander but her father does not want her to marry him because Theseus likes Demetruis better then Lysander. If Hermia does not marry Demetruis like her father asks her to do she will either be executed or become a nun which means she can not marry any guy. Then Hermia and Lysander make a plan to escape far away were her father Theseus can find them. When they escape they are plaing on marrying each other. Later on a women named Helena comes into the story she is obessed with Demtruis she loves him so much she will do anything for him. Helena WAS Hermia's best friend till Helena found out that Demetruis loved Hermia and not Helena. Before Helena and Demetrius use to go out but then Demetruis meet Hermia. Hermia and Lysander decide to tell Helena about their plan to escape. Then Helena decides to tell Demetruis about the plan because that way she thinks he will love her back.
